Nearly 100 years ago, there was a legend in the making, a legend so fantastic, still only a small handful of people know the actual story behind the legend anymore. A young boy named Naruto wanted to become a shinobi, and finally earn the respect he believed he deserved, for he was always ignored by those around, but why he did not know. Tempted by another to steal a scroll of great power, he soon found the truth about his foggy memories and past, he was the newest host of the feared fox demon, Kyuubi. The demon had been sealed in his body when he was only a mere infant, condemning him to the barely masked hatred others felt for him. To the young boy, it only spurred him to try even harder to become a shinobi, and proved he was every bit as capable as other shinobi. Naruto set off on a long path to proving himself and following his ninja way, meeting both friend and foe on his journey. What happened to him is not known, but the legend stands to say he did one day find his dreams, and go on to prove himself to others more and more.

But that was such a long time ago now, and the march of time warps what little knowledge of the past is left to us for interpretation. Let the legend of the young demon boy Naruto prove that everyone has self worth and the propensity of infinite potential should you choose to give life, and what it has to give, everything you have. These are such chaotic days; your village has a dire need for a beacon through the shifting shadows of the darkness in the heart of the corrupted shinobi. Will you aspire to be that beacon, the light guiding others e a boring tale of standard fare, or a lifetime of massive proportions and adventures?

Now is not the time to lay idle my young shinobi! You must strike out and find your ninja way, and never stray from the ideals you have set for your life. In days when the storm clouds seem thicker with each passing day, there are chances for more legends to begin and end today and tomorrow. But now it’s time for you to become one of those very legends families pass down from generation to generation. Let the spirits of the past swim around you, guiding your footsteps through the echoing halls of from and through the ever present midnight? Should try to be that beacon will you know hardship, pain, fantasy, friendship, loss, love, and maybe forever immortalized in the written tale of your life. Will it be time, keeping you shielded from the false shinobi and their empty ideals. Focus only on self improvement and growth, falling from mistakes only to stand up again. Mistakes are part of learning, so consider this life a lesson in endurance and humility. I wish that whatever gods are out under that stretching sky will protect you from this storm we are in.
